Got a speeding ticket when visiting Washington last year. No traffic school available, instead I requested a deferment that the judge approved. It will be wiped so long as I don’t get any more violations over one year.
My insurance rate has gone up and they list a violation. They recommend i pull my record and call the court if it shows. Pulled my record on dmv website and this is all it shows
LICENSE STATUS:
VALID*
DEPARTMENTAL ACTIONS:
NONE*
CONVICTIONS:
VIOL/DT CONV/DT SEC/VIOL DKT/NO DISP COURT VEH/LIC
06-14-25 07-16-25 01 WASH

FAILURES TO APPEAR:
VIOL/DT SEC/VIOL DKT/NO COURT VEH/LIC
06-14-25 78 5A03837 WASH
UPDATED:07-30-25*
Called the court and they said judge will dismiss it in august and that they believe it should not have been reported or affect my insurance. I wouldn’t say they sounded sure of what they were saying, though.
Not sure what my next move should be, as I assumed a deferment would defer the ticket. Any suggestions?
Do deferred tickets impact insurance rates?
